Something Doesn't Seem Right


~ Classroom ~ (afternoon)

"So what are we doing on today's agenda?" asked Kohta as he and Nyu were talking to their teacher.

Kodo-sensei went to her bag as she retrieved a few pieces of paper before handing them back to her two club members. "The newspaper club is currently on a very strict deadline and they kind of need our help with a few things".

"Like what sensei?" asked Nyu.

"Well they need a few pictures for some of the articles in their paper as well as a few others photos to be developed. So time is of the essence for them as they really need to get these things completed as soon as possible".

Kohta and Nyu looked at each other is slight confusion before looking back to their teacher. "But sensei, we don't know what pictures to take, and where do we even start?"

The teacher simply smirked as she went to the door. "That's why one of their member's will be working with you" as she slid the door open for it to close again.

". . . . Sensei?" Kohta and Nyu looked around as they didn't see anyone enter or exit. They then began to wonder if this person was supposed to be invisible or something.

"Look down! I'm right here!"

The pair then corrected their sight to see an elementary school girl dressed in a very cliché brown anime style witch outfit. ". . . . huh?"

"This is Yukari Sendo from class B" explained Kodo-sensei. "She is also part of the newspaper club as she'll be guiding you around the school for the pictures you will need to take".

"So does that mean . . . ." asked Nyu.

"Yep, in a way she'll be your boss for the next two or three hours" she smiled. Kodo soon left her classroom.

The pair gave a slight sigh at this. Kohta then looked to the child as she was looking back at them with glee. "Don't you think she looks a bit young to be in high school?" he whispered to Nyu.

"Actually she is really smart so she was allowed to skip a few grades and enter the academy".

"Wow, how old is she?"

"Eleven from what I heard" which caused Kohta's eyes to widen in surprise. "And she even scored number one in the school wide exam".

He then looked back at the child. "Incredible, a child prodigy at such an age" Kohta's attention then became more focused at her. Looking at the child she reminded him a lot of his sister, ". . . . Kanae" But then he noticed a strange twinkle in the girl's eyes. "Huh? What is up with her?"

But then without warning the little witch glomped his ditzy friend as she grabbed her chest while rubbing her face in them which caused Nyu to blush and slightly jump at the action.

"What are you doing?" exclaimed Kohta as he could only gape and blush at what he saw.

"Yukari-chan! Please stop! You're making me feel really weird!" as Nyu began to squirm to what was going on.

However it seemed that the little witch was far too entranced in what she was doing. "Such a grand beauty you are!" squealed Yukari. "So many perfect qualities like your porcelain like skin, long pink hair, big bright eyes, a pure aura, and ample boobs to boot" as she gave them a slight squeeze. "You're definitely as beautiful as my Moka-san!"

Kohta could only stare as he was completely dumbfounded. ". . . . This girl . . . . definitely not like Kanae . . . . she seriously has some issues to work out".


~ Youkai Academy ~ (late afternoon)

"So Yukari-chan" asked Kohta. "When does your club need these photos?"

The little witch looked up in thought. "Well we need them by today as our newspaper is due by tomorrow".

"Huh?" as both Kohta and Nyu looked to her in disbelief. "Cutting it close don't you think?"

"Sorry about this, but we were kind of side tracked with other problems to which we need to hurry and get these photos done as I need to return back to the club room to finish up the last few articles".

"Well OK, we will try our best to get things done".

With that the group ventured around the school getting photos of certain sites and people that Yukari wanted. For the most part, the tasks were rather simple. But most of the difficulty came from the little witch herself as she couldn't quite keep her hands off Nyu as she would constantly go on about how she was just as beautiful as Moka . . . . whoever she was.

But then after some time the group finished as Kohta and Nyu returned to the developing center to create the photos. Then afterwards they returned to Yukari giving her the fully developed work.

"Here you go Yukari-chan" smiled Kohta. "I hope your paper turns out really well".

Yukari smiled as she accepted the photos with glee. "Thank you Kohta-san and Nyu-san!" She then looked to Kohta. "You know, you're very nice. You seem a lot like the guy who works in the same club as me". But she then placed her hands on her cheek as she wiggled back and forth. "But my heart already belongs to him and Moka-san, and someday the three of us will share . . . ."

"Let me stop you there" interjected Kohta as he gave a strained laugh. "Don't you have to get back to your club to get things done?"

"Oh right! I better get going now. So thank you again and I wish we can all worked together on later projects!" as she smiled and waved them good-bye before leaving.

The tanned youth then looked to his pink friend. "Umm Nyu-san . . . . are you OK?"

"Yes . . . . I'm fine . . . ." responded Nyu although her body still shivered from the massive fondling she recently went through. Although she partly felt mortified, she also was slightly excited. Concerning Yukari, she had to make an exception that it was done by an eleven year old girl who really didn't know any better.

They both then looked back to the distant figure of the little witch. ". . . . Someone seriously needs to talk to her".


~ Youkai Academy ~ (the next day)

The day went as it usually went at Youkai Academy. First was the traveling down the main road. Then the death glares he would get from Nyu hanging onto his arm, and then starting class from there. Although there was a slight difference that morning as the newspaper club were handing out there their paper to anyone who were interested. But not to his and Nyu's surprise, most of the takers were overly hormonal boys.

So continuing on from there they went to class as they should until it was lunch time. But for most of that time period, Kohta's mind was distracted over something that has been bothering him since the last time he was in his inner world. "So what exactly am I?" as he looked out the classroom window in a slight daze. At first the idea was intriguing, but as he thought more about it the more he began to sink in trying to understand his dilemma. Although he considered himself a kind of guy who went with the flow of everything, the idea of him not being human seemed to have shook the very core of what he was.

But he didn't understand why such a thing should have bothered him. He was still him and that's all that should have mattered. But for some reason thinking he might be something else felt like his life thus far was a complete and utter lie. Thinking too far into it wasn't very productive. As far back as he could remember he was just a normal human child as he hadn't exhibited any special abilities whatsoever. But even with attaining these abilities it shouldn't really have mattered to him. Each time he tried to tell himself it didn't matter, the very pit of his stomach felt like twisting as heavy depression would set in. At this train of thought, "Just what am I exactly?"

Concerning his magic, he found it fascinating that he had access to such amazing abilities. I mean what normal guy like him wouldn't find this absolutely intriguing. But then after his thought process, he dared not use his powers. Simply, "I just don't understand . . . . what the hell am I . . . ."

Then lunch came about as everyone was then excused for their short break period.

Kohta absentmindedly left as he was now droning around the halls. Although externally he seemed fine enough, on the inside he felt hollow.

But there was one person he couldn't hide his turmoil from. "Kohta-kun, what's wrong?" asked Nyu. By her eyes, the tanned youth has been in and out as of late. That really concerned her.

Kohta immediately became attentive as he straightened himself up at the call of his ditzy friend. "Yeah? What is it Nyu-san?"

Nyu gave a depressed look at his demeanor. "Kohta-kun, what's been bothering you?"

The tanned youth blinked at this. ". . . . Nothing wrong Nyu-san. You're just imagining things".

"Kohta-kun . . . . please don't lie to me like that. I know you don't want to worry me . . . . but if we're friends please tell me what's wrong?"

Kohta sighed as he looked away. "Just . . . . leave it be please. This is something I want to solve on my own".

"But Kohta-kun . . . . !" but then turned silent as Nyu looked down dishearten.

The tanned youth immediately noticed her behavior. He then placed his hands on her shoulder in a comforting manner to let her know his intention. "Please don't be sad. This is just something I have to figure out for myself. But don't worry, this won't change anything to which if I ever have a problem I'll still come to you OK".

The ditzy girl looked up with a smile. "OK, just know if you ever need to talk I'm here for you"

Kohta nodded at this, "OK"

The pair then proceeded to the gathering area where most people went to eat their lunch. The place in question was a beautiful garden like terrace surrounded by flower bushes with many white circular tables and chairs to accompany them. As the pair looked around to see many groups talking and laughing like any teenager would do, they then soon spotted a familiar site.

"Yukari-chan? Why is she sitting there alone?" At seeing the little witch, she looked worried as she began to look back and forth for something. The pair then approached her.

"Yukari-chan, is there something wrong?" asked Nyu.

The little witch turned to them with relief on her face. "One of my friends ran off upset as Moka-san went off to see if they were OK".

The ditzy girl then sensed extreme distress coming from the child. "Did something happen recently?"

Yukari nodded, "The student police committee is trying to shut us down".

"Why?" asked Kohta. "I looked at your paper and it didn't seem to have done anything wrong. Besides what grounds does the police committee have to shut down another club?"

"They don't!" she exclaimed. But she then retracted as she shivered. "But if we refused to shut down then they threatened to shut us down by force . . . ."

The pair reacted in shock to this as they understood what she meant. The thought of the police committee using the threat of violence to coerce a club to shut down was a terrible thing to think about. If such a body in the student government was this corrupt then that spelt a lot of trouble for a lot of people.

"But what reason did they have to shut you down?" asked Kohta.

"It had something to do with last year during Gin-sempai's time" said Yukari. "According to him they wrote an article about the committee which they didn't find very favorable which resulted in the decimation of the club last year".

"You mean they attacked all the previous members just because they didn't like what they read?" asked Nyu in disbelief.

The little witch nodded. "We all worked so hard on our paper. But then they destroyed it, and . . . ." to which she began to sniffle.

Nyu patted the girl on the head. "Don't worry, it'll be fine. We all just have to keep working harder and so long as we stick together we'll be fine".

"But we . . . ."

"We're the photography club, remember?" smiled Kohta. "Anything that happens to the newspaper club happens to us too. So we got your back".

The ditzy girl then grabbed her hand as she slowly pulled her up. "Come on; let's go find your club mates as they will definitely need some cheering up".

Yukari smiled as she gave a nod, "thank you Kohta-san and Nyu-san".

The trio soon got up to leave to look for the missing newspaper club members as Yukari attempted to map out where they could have possibly ran off too.

"Where could they be?" she then asked but more to herself as she attempted to find her missing friends.

Nyu and Kohta kept an eye out. Although it was a bit silly as they didn't really know who they should be looking for as they didn't know anyone from that club. So they just simply followed the young witch from behind until she found who she was looking for.

"So you have no idea where they are?" asked Kohta.

"Well according to my calculations, they should have come through here" as Yukari scratched her head in thought. "Where could they have run off too?"

"You're the photography club, aren't you?"

The trio then looked to their side to see a pretty pale green haired girl who was dressed in a black colored military like uniform. "Yeah and . . . . who are you exactly?"

"That's one of the members of the police committee!" exclaimed Yukari as she pulled out her wand while getting into fighting stance.

"What? So these are the people attacking your club?" asked Nyu

"Oh not just the newspaper club" she smirked. "I was sent here to tie up some loose ends which were any person or club that was associated with the newspaper club".

"So wait! We're being targeted too?"

She nodded, "You're like a cancer, if we don't cut out the entire infection then it'll grow out infecting the healthy society around them. So simply any person who was associated with the newspaper club must now be eliminated. This will show a clear message to anyone who tries to disrupt the order of the academy to never even think about it".

"Leave them alone! They had nothing to do with this!" shouted Yukari.

The girl's expression then turned darker. In that instant her pale green hair started to stand as her skin began to turn paler as her eyes turned black while her pupils turned yellow. As she was now, it almost seemed like she was beginning to become more ghost like. "My name Kaori, and today I'll be your executioner!"

"What is she?" as Kohta stepped back in surprise to what he saw.

"She's a banshee!" said Yukari. "They're a type of monster that uses sound based attacks to kill their enemy. Be careful!"

The creature soon started the fight as she screamed creating ultrasonic waves which began tearing up the ground going right at them.

"Get out of the way!" yelled Yukari to which the trio jumped avoiding the sonic attack. She immediately counter attacked as she waved her wand as a giant wash pan appeared above the banshee only for it to prove ineffective.

Kohta watched the exchange between them as he begun to quake in uncertainty. He knew he should be doing something to help for letting a child do the fighting for him was a rather disgraceful thing to do. However his fears began to resurface again as he tried to use his powers. But as compelled as he was to wanting to do something, he found that his body did not wish to move.

"Kohta-kun! Yukari-chan is in trouble! We have to do something!" exclaimed Nyu. But at seeing her tanned friend completely paralyzed, "Kohta-kun?" as now he was simply sitting there looking wide eyed to the event.

"I . . . . I can't . . . ." as he looked down in frustration.

"But why not? She's in trouble!"

" . . . . I just . . . . can't . . . ."

Nyu looked to him with a heavy heart. But then her face became serious as she took his hand and placed it over her bracelet as it began to glow. At this action her horns appeared as Lucy was now free. She then got up and faced away from him. "If you want to be useless fine, just stay out of the way" as she soon ran off to the support the little witch.

Kohta looked away in disgust.

"Ahh!" screamed Yukari as she was now on her back quaking in pain at the moment.

"Time to die" smoothly stated Kaori as she opened her mouth to deliver the finishing blow. But then was forced away at feeling an incredible shock hit her face. "What?"

Lucy then sent her vectors forward easily knocking the banshee aside as she swatted her away like a bug. Then sending her psychic hands in once again, she picked her up as she threw her once more.

However Kaori easily recovered using her sonic voice to correct her balance. Then spotting her target began her scream.

"I can't let her get me!" thought Lucy as she started running faster. "I need to close the distance between us and finish this quickly!" In observing her opponents abilities, her sound attack was getting dangerous as it was wide range attack which easily decimated the area around them. But worse off if her assumption was right about this opponent, it would mean big trouble if she got hit by her sound. So launching herself up in the air she wrapped several vectors around her right arm greatly enhancing her physical strength as she cocked her fist back ready to finish this. "Eat this!" as she threw her punch.

Kaori was surprised at the gutsy move, but unable to attack or move in time she had no choice but to take it as the punch dislocated her jaw almost knocking her unconscious.

Lucy who had now landed next to her gave a bit of a proud smirk. "Impressive, you're still conscious after taking a hit like that. I probably should have focused more power before attacking you". Her opponent then lifted her head. "Still trying to fight huh? Rather futile of you at this point in time".

However Kaori started to scream which Lucy instantly saw as the attack was no threat to her. But then taking a second look, that's when she realized where the attack was going. "Hey stupid, get out of the way!" she yelled as the sonic waves were flying right at the still dazed boy. "Damn it!" and not even thinking about it she punched her vectors into the ground instantaneously pushing herself in front of the attack. Her face tightened as she crossed her arms as well as her vectors at seeing the incoming sound wave. "This is going to hurt". The moment the sound hit her vectors they shattered as Lucy then took the full brunt of Kaori's attack. "Ahhhh!" she screamed in pain as she had to hold her ears as blood began to leak out. As she thought, the sound attacks were affecting her mind disrupting certain sections of her brain making it impossible to concentrate her vectors. To a psychic like herself, getting hit by sound at certain frequencies was like having nails on a chalkboard occurring right inside her head.

Lucy soon collapsed to her knees as she cringed in pain while still holding her ears.

Kaori then got up as she forcibly re-corrected her jaw as she now looked exceedingly pissed. "B**ch, I'm going to make sure you now suffer for injuring my face". She then kicked Lucy to the ground. Then taking aim, she opened her mouth as she let out a full pitch scream.

"I can't . . . . take anymore of this . . . ." as the horned girl was now withering in how much pain she was in. As much as her body was hurting, her head was hurting more as she held her ears in a futile effort to lessen the stress. "Ahhhh!"

Kaori then took another breath. "This ought to finish you". As she was about to attack she was surprised to find herself instantly knocked off her feet as she was now on the ground. "What the hell was that?" She then looked up to see the other member of the photography club as one of his arms was glowing as it was raised at her. Her face began to twist in rage, "so you want to die first huh, then die!" as she let out a howling scream. But the moment her attack was about to reach, a strange circle of runes appeared to stop it. At seeing him begin to advance on her, "what the hell is he? What kind of monster is he to do such a thing?" By appearance, her attack was not slowing him down.

Kohta slowly advanced as the conduits were now lit on both his arms. He then started to push the shield against the sound as his body began to feel extreme vibrations from the aftershock. Due to this side effect, the vibrations were causing some internal damage as he had now begun to bleed out from his eyes. However that didn't really matter now as he now understood something. "I can't believe how stupid I've been acting! Wasn't this the whole reason I got these powers!"

In recalling the short conversation he had with his specter, he wanted power so he wouldn't be helpless. But more so, it was to protect his friend and that meant something to him. So throwing aside his doubts he placed both his hands behind the shield as he began pushing harder against it. In retaliation, he felt the banshee increase her volume to stop him. Although he felt his body cracking under the stress of the banshee's scream, "I can't give up now! Lucy-san needs my help!"

"This can't be possible!" thought Kaori. "No such monster should be able to withstand my attack even with magic!" She tried to scream louder, but was already at her limit as her lungs were taxed. But even at maximum volume he was not stopping. "It's not possible!"

Kohta was getting weaker as cracks were beginning to form all over his skin drenching parts of his uniform in blood. "At this rate I only have about a few seconds before I literally bleed out to death". So digging in deep, his shield began to glow brighter as he started pushing harder making a dash towards his opponent. "I've got to finish this now!"

"Stay back!" as Kaori began to move to retreat. However she wasn't moving fast enough as her opponent was closing in quickly. But now standing in front of her, she could no longer run. Then to make matters worse her lungs were now completely deflated as she was forced to take a breath. At that act, her opponent lowered their shield to reveal a severely bleeding boy who looked half dead on his feet. Although by appearance he was the one beaten, something about his aura said otherwise.

Kohta gave shallow breaths as began to slouch where he stood. He then gave a low chuckle, "sorry, but I don't really hit girls".

"Then allow me!" as Lucy who had just recuperated soon punched the police member so hard that she was sent flying into the woods nearby."Tsk" as she spat to the ground. "should have done that from the start".

"Ouch . . . ." noting how hard she was hit. Then turning back to his friend, "are you OK Lucy-s . . . ." But before he could finish his words of concern he too was punched in the face by the same diclonius girl sending him to the ground as he had to hold the spot at where he was hit. "Lucy-san?"

"Count yourself lucky that I haven't broken your face in yet".

"Huh?" as he looked to her in confusion. "You do know I'm kind of injured right?"

"Like I care. I told you before; if you ever upset my other I'm going to make you pay, and since you took your time getting your butt up to help me you can say anger is appropriate. However . . . ." wich caused Kohta to flinch back instinctively. "Since you made yourself useful this time I'll let you off with that courtesy warning" as she turned away slightly blushing.

Kohta gave a choked laugh. "Uhh, thanks". Lucy soon extended her hand which he took as she pulled him up. He then clenched he held one of the injuries on his chest. "Damn that hurts".

Lucy looked to him briefly before looking away. "I guess I'll take you to the nurse's office first".

But just before they could leave, "Wait! What about Yukari-chan!"

As if right on cue, "That was amazing!" exclaimed Yukari as she tackled the horned girl from behind.

This act caused Kohta to fall face first onto the ground as he twitched in pain, ". . . . Why me?"

"An opposite tsundere personality, the incredible power, and the extreme strength you're definitely like my Moka-san!" exclaimed the little witch as she hugged Lucy even tighter.

Lucy growing slightly irritated soon peeled her off. "Fine! Just get off me already!" Even at the aggressive statement, the little witch continued to watch her in awe which caused her to sweat drop a bit. ". . . . This kid seriously needs talking too".

Kohta soon sat up to watch the spectacle in front of him. "Kind of injured here, can someone please take me to the nurse's office?"

The horned girl looked to him and then back to Yukari. "You know some healing spells right? Use some of it on him to stop his whining".

"So cool!" as Yukari shivered a bit at Lucy's charisma. She then knelt down as she began applying her magic to the tanned youth's wounds. As her spell glowed over the injury, ". . . . That's strange, his wounds aren't healing properly like a normal monster. Hmm, I wonder what kind of monster he is to not react to my spells very well". A certain thought then came to mind as she recalled the battle. "By the way Kohta-san, you had some very impressive spells back there".

"Uhh, thanks . . . . I guess".

"But . . . . I have never seen any kind of magic like that before. What kind of magic do you use?"

"What kind of magic? What are you talking about?" as Kohta looked to her curiously.

"Is he serious?" as she perched one of her eyebrows. She then let out a low sigh. "Well there are many kinds of magic in the world which varies between species to which from there varies in the level of the practitioner".

"Is that so" partly chuckled Kohta as he was still more or less following along. "Actually . . . . I have no idea what kind of magic I use . . . ."

"What?" Yukari then exclaimed. "What kind of self-respecting magic user doesn't even know what kind of magic they use?"

"Me . . . . I guess . . . ." as the tanned youth gave another strained laugh. "So what kind of magic do you think I use".

The little witch looked up in thought as she continued her task of healing. "Hmm, I honestly don't know. When I was looking at you fight I was very impressed by the spell. If I had to guess by the spell configuration, it looked a lot like youjutsu. However . . . ."

"However?" as Kohta asked in anticipation for the answer.

"Well . . . . I honestly don't know . . . ."

"Huh? What is that supposed to mean?"

Yukari scratched her cheek at this puzzling predicament. "I've studied and read about almost every kind of magic known in the world. The closest your magic looks like is to youjutsu which is the epitome of magical abilities. But looking at the rune configuration, it doesn't look like anything I've ever seen before".

Kohta then looked down in worry, "and the questions just keep on coming . . . ."

"By the way Kohta-san, what kind of monster are you?"

The tanned youth almost choked at this question. "Why . . . . Why do you ask?"

"I seem to be having trouble using my healing spell on you. I know some monsters to which magic works differently on them. So if I know what kind of monster you are I think I can tune my spell to better work for you".

" . . . . Well" he then slurred. "I . . . . ."

"That's not important" then interjected Lucy. "Just do what you can for him got it".

Kohta breathed out a sigh of relief. "Thanks Lucy-san" to which the horned girl heard.

"I'll do what I can" as Yukari finished up her spell.

From there the little witch left to go find her friends as Lucy fell back to her slumber as Kohta took her back to her dorm. Nothing to eventful occurred from that point as time ended like it usually did concluding another day at Youkai Academy.


~ Youkai Academy ~ (next day)

"This is beginning to look like serious trouble". On his usual route to school, Yukari filled both him and Nyu up on the latest news of what was going on. It appeared that an arachnid monster whom was part of the police committee attacked her friends to which one of them got injured. However the battle ended soundly in their victory. But in looking at how they operated thus far, "this is far from over. The police committee will be back for vengeance. We should be prepared for them when they come".

As he walked around absentmindedly thinking about his next move, he noticed a familiar boy sitting slouched over on the bench looking quite depressed. "Hey I know that guy . . . . well sort of. I wonder why he looks so down." So deciding to try and do the right thing he took a seat next to him. "Hey umm . . . . you look kind of down. Are you OK?" Now guys weren't exactly well known for expressing their feelings as they have always been taught to bottle them up. But in Kohta's case, he figured he was doing a decent job thus far in approaching this matter.

". . . . I don't really want to talk about it".

"Well I do know that you'll feel a lot better if you let this off your chest, and if you're worried about me telling then don't because I can keep a secret".

"That's actually the problem. Anyone who knows my secret will either have me killed or get themselves killed for just simply knowing". The boy then coughed out a bit, "but at this rate the entire school will find out very soon".

Kohta's eyes widened at the statement. "It must be pretty serious to proclaim death about it". "OK, I guess I shouldn't ask then".

The boy gave a long dreaded sigh. "Because the police committee found out my secret my friends ended up learning it to which now I am alone. But even worse they probably could be in trouble from simply associating with me".

The tanned youth whistled at this. "Wow that must be one hell of a secret to be punishable by death". At this moment Kohta was becoming very curious to what this secret might be. ". . . . but if I remember correctly there was only one crime resulting to the immediate death sentence . . . . what was it . . . . ?"

The boy then gave a weak smile. "Well I guess I do feel a bit better after getting this off my chest".

"You're welcome" smiled Kohta. "Is there something else I can do to help you out of this predicament?"

"Afraid not, not unless you can get the death sentence revoked off me".

"I wonder if he's just exaggerating about the whole death thing" as Kohta looked to him curiously. "I guess I can't really do much for you then at the moment". He then got up as he extended his hand in a handshake gesture. "By the way sorry for the late introductions but name is Kohta, Kohta Hisashi. And you?"

The boy looked up with a weak smile as he took his hand. "It's nice to meet you. My name is Tsukune, Tsukune Aono. But with my current circumstance, this probably will be our last meeting".

To be continued . . . .
